Hi Surferboy,
It really doesn't sound like a side effect of plaquenil.
It does sound very much like a symptom of anxiety - where your mental/emotional excitation is being expressed in physical symptoms. What you describe is a classical presentation.
Still, it is always better to be safe than sorry so the GP appointment is a good idea.
If you are having these type of symptoms, it is your body telling you you need to adress your coping strategies and reduce your stress. It is important that you do this, stress is no good for lupus.
Take care
